My dots are ice cold
-
We have a Dot in another room and so far this works just as well.
-
I notice that the Genie doesn’t listen as well as the Echo Dot and the Genie’s responses are very slow in comparison
-
And, while I still think the Dot is more responsive initially (and therefore more useful as an "assistant"), these Genies function great as a nice "smart" speaker
-
The good news is that the Eufy Genie works just as well as the Echo Dot, for the most part
-
This is a great Dot clone
-
The Dot also has this problem.- music would inexplicably turn off about ten or fifteen minutes into listening (via the Amazon Music that is the default for Alexa)
-
That differential makes the Dot a better choice.
-
Just like like a dot is supposed to be
-
use this in a separate bedroom and it works jst as well as a dot
-
I love my Echo Dot with Alexa.
-
Not as good as DOT, but not bad.
-
For price great alternative to dot and echo
-
Genie works about as well as the Dot
-
For less money than the Dot, you get a more attractive "dot" - Genie
-
Overall, the Eufy Genie is a fine piece of technology considering the price although I would prefer the Echo dot over Eufy Genie any day because of calling, bluetooth, and microphone
-
I just needed a cheap dot to put in my kids
-
Not what I expected after reading the reviews.. love my echo dot instead
-
Hopefully the genie will get as good as the dot with software updates and hopefully they can also make it sound better.
-
but I've come across a few things that might make the dot a better choice if you own more then one Alexa device
-
We own an Echo Dot and love it
-
While it's less expensive I'm not sure if I like it as much as the Dot
-
It can't for instance do messages or phone calls like the Dot can, and it also doesn't have the new multi room capability the Dot just got as well
-
, I have it linked to another speaker and it sounds as good as an echo dot
-
The Genie performs just as good as the Echo Dot, if not better
-
i have noticed that the Eufy genie is not as responsive as the Amazon Dot
-
receiver!The microphone seems to work just as well as the Echo Dot
-
It is same as dot but cheaper
-
Save your money and buy a genuine Alexa Dot, you’ll be much happier.
-
Additional is not a as comprehensive as the echo Dot.
-
As I'm sure was Eufy's intention, The Genie is essentially a cheaper Echo Dot with better sound
-
A little frustrating at first trying to get the EufyHome to connect to my WiFi, but after a few try’s, it connected and works just as well as our Dot
-
The mic does not seem to pick up as well as my dot
-
It works as well as my echo dot.
-
In fact I find the sound quality to surpass the echo dot.
-
I'd advise getting a Dot and enjoying all the functionality available
-
Not as well as my echo dot however
-
The genie just isn’t close to as good as the dots we have scattered around
-
For the price, it's good for controlling smart home devices, but I prefer the Dot
-
Works just as good as Echo Dot, but for less, just a tad taller!
-
not as good as the dot
-
I did try it in the garage, dropping connection an then put Dot 3, worked terrific
-
Recognition not quite as sensitive as the Dot.
-
the speaker is better than Echo Dot, but not as responsive as echo dot.
-
etc)Is it as good as an Echo Dot
-
Still worth saving the money.***Update: After having this connected for 24 hours, it now response as fast as my Echo Dot
-
But there are a few limitations (drop-in, calls, changing the wake word) that caused me to upgrade to a genuine Echo Dot
-
The DOT worked!!!
-
With one exception, seems to work as well as a DOT but with "better" sound --- tho not as good sounding as the original Echo
-
I have no complaints, it may not be as responsive as the echo dot, but it definitely serves as a great economical option with a better speaker than the echo dot version.
-
Recommend over the echo dot at this price
-
Works the same as my Echo dot, bet has better speakers.
-
Works well but voice recognition not as good as Echo Dot.
-
The Eufy was on sale for $20, which made it even cheaper than the cheapest Echo Dot
-
The Dot attached to my Groups just fine
-
Works as well as the dot for half price
-
Not as good as the Dot.
-
Pros:- Louder, better sound quality than the Dot- Better software management than Amazon's own
-
n’t tarnish the Alexa brand for a new user
-
n’t work
